Jeremy Martin

Jeremy Martin is an associate in the Litigation Group. He practises commercial litigation and dispute resolution with a focus on class proceedings. Jeremy has particular experience working with clients in the areas of product liability, commercial disputes and electoral law, and has appeared as lead counsel before provincial, superior and appellate courts.

Jeremy is a co-author of the Annual Survey of Civil Procedure in Watson & McGowan’s Ontario Civil Practice and the author of a leading article on waiver of tort. He publishes primarily in the areas of class proceedings, civil procedure and legal history.

Jeremy graduated from the University of Toronto Faculty of Law in 2011. While attending law school, he was awarded the Osgoode Society prize for his contributions to the field of Anglo-Canadian legal history and received top standing in Litigation and Dispute Resolution. He was appointed Senior Editor of Private Law at the University of Toronto Faculty of Law Review, and represented the Faculty in the Laskin national constitutional moot.

Jeremy’s professional philosophy is that litigation is only a kit of tools, some of which may be used in a broader approach to extinguishing disputes. Despite his successes in the courtroom, he considers his best work to have been done on cases that were never filed, argued or covered in the press.
